Oh, gee thanks to some very special friends to give me a new hope for carvig.. and Hi Ho.. techophile? I have now learned a new word.. I will try and remember that one!
Yes, Melnm computers are fun.. but sure can be a twister for my brain..
Nancy, I could never never compair to you, as you are my hero.... !
AlArchie.. Curtis and I loved Santas it was in our blood and when he passed away, I thought.. he will never carve me a little Santa doll again.. Then one day I picked up his knives and all the fear of cuttling myself was gone and I couldn't believe it was, but it just happened and it was if I heard Curtis say.. "and you though I would never carve you another little doll again!" So this keeps me keeping on and I just love it, but I am slow as Christmas.. I just don't know how in the world I am doing it and knives and gouges have become beautiful to me.. and who would have ever thought that they would be beautiful... hummmmm???? Charlotte
